The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

"I'm here." Ibaraki Douji appeared at the end of the corridor.

"Fox demon." Shuten-doji's gaze returned to Tamamonomae in front of him.

"It's almost time!"

"Let's get going."

"Eh?"

Tamamonomae discovered that Shuten-doji suddenly became very active.

【The plan is going according to your idea. 】

[You and Minamoto no Raikou found Fujiwara no Tokuko again - although her attitude towards you was still very bad. ]

【But you don’t care.】

[Because the focus of this operation is not you, but Shuten Douji and Ibaraki Douji. ]

[As ghosts, they need to find the mirror and bring it out during the time you hold Fujiwara Tokuko back.]

You don’t know what their situation is like.

【But you can only trust them. 】

"Shuten."

Ibaraki Douji looked at Shuten Douji beside him and was very surprised.

"You are very motivated today."

"Have it?"

Ibaraki Douji nodded.

"some."

"You're all on fire."

"Eh?"

Shuten-doji slapped out the flames that were created by the magic power released from his body.

"Ibaraki, can you please stop stressing over these insignificant details?"

"Oh...I understand."

"...You don't have to make that expression. We just hope you can be safe this time."

"This is a human palace. It's very dangerous!"

"it is good."

Back to the question itself.

Although he promised Ian those things, Shuten-doji actually didn't know how to do it.

After all, this was her first time here.

If only someone could help lead the way...

Just as Shuten-doji was thinking this, a figure walked through the corridor she was secretly observing.

Is that another person dressed as Onmyoji?

151. The Mastermind in Ping An Palace (-word chapter)

"Hey hey~"

Shuten-douji waved his hand cautiously towards Ibaraki-douji on the other side.

"Izuki, look over there!"

"..."

Ibaraki Douji stuck half of his head out and looked at the corridor outside.

"Eh? There's another Onmyoji?"

"Ibaraki, you noticed it too, didn't you?"

Shuten-doji looked at the Onmyoji in front of him.

"Say, should we follow them?"

Ibaraki Douji shook his head.

"I don't know."

"I listen to you. If you say you want to follow, I will follow."

The choice suddenly returned to Shuten-doji.

She looked at the Onmyoji's gradually receding back, hesitated for a moment, and decided to take the risk and follow him.

Shuten-doji certainly knew that demons and Onmyoji had an extremely hostile relationship.

But at this moment, with no available intelligence, following him was the only option for the two ghosts.

"Izuki, let's go!"

"Yeah, I understand."

[You don't know what happened to Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji on the other side.]

[Because your attention is now on Fujiwara Tokuko. ]

[Because you found that there was something wrong with her. ]

"lady."

Ian asked Minamoto no Raikou who was beside him calmly.

"Do you feel that...she is a little bit strange today?"

Minamoto no Raikou naturally understood that the "she" Ian was referring to was Fujiwara no Tokuko.

After knowing what she had done to the Emperor, Minamoto no Raikou and Ian, who were both shoguns, no longer respected her in private.

"Indeed, I feel that she..."

"Very anxious." Ian added the second half of the sentence.

"Yes." Minamoto no Raikou nodded.

In line with the consensus reached by the two, Fujiwara no Tokuko seemed very anxious today.

It can even be said that something is not quite right.

"Ma'am, has anything happened recently?"

"not at all."

Minamoto no Raikou looked cautiously at Fujiwara no Tokuko who was still meeting with his ministers.

"But lately, she's been like this all the time."

"Always been this way?"

"Ah."

[You realize that the situation in Heian Palace is somewhat different from what you thought]

[You vaguely feel that Fujiwara Tokuko in front of you is also under some pressure. ]

[You have an adventurous idea of ​​going out and having a look. ]

"Ma'am, can I leave for a while?"

"Eh?"

According to common sense, Minamoto no Raikou should not allow Ian to do this.

but--

As his first wife, Minamoto no Raikou could sense that her husband was thinking of something.

Without hesitation, she took out Genji's token and tied it around the great Onmyoji's waist.

"I understand."

"Husband, do what you think is right."

"I'll take care of the situation here."

No further words needed.

The Genji couple looked at each other and completely believed in each other.

[You temporarily left the court hall.]

【This should not be allowed. 】

[But Fujiwara Tokuko doesn't seem to have time for you—she looks really anxious.]

【You are walking in the quiet Heian Palace. 】

You start to think about all this.

Ian always felt that this series of events was a little inconsistent.

It is true that Fujiwara no Tokuko wanted to participate in government affairs.

but--

It is not a good idea for the Onmyoji to connect with the outside world and set up a formation in Heian Palace like this.

After all, this is a very risky behavior.

As the number one Onmyoji in Kyoto, I could possibly notice all of this at any time.

The great Onmyoji hiding behind Fujiwara no Tokuko would naturally not be unaware of this.

So--

This shows that he was able to keep things going smoothly even after being discovered.

Should this be called confidence?

Or should we say arrogance?

In addition, Ian was very concerned about one other point.

Why did Fujiwara no Tokuko wear a veil to cover her face?

Among these...is there any secret that cannot be known by others?

You are thinking about these questions.

【And Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji's tracking also continues. 】

Ghosts and humans are different.

As creatures that survive by relying on "thoughts", ghosts can easily hide their own breath.

This is also the reason why the profession of Onmyoji was born - people need someone who can find out the hidden ghosts.

As demons with extraordinary abilities, Shuten Douji and Ibaraki Douji naturally know how to hide their aura.

Therefore, even if they followed the unknown great Onmyoji closely like this, the two ghosts would not be discovered.

"What a stupid Onmyoji."

Shuten-doji looked at the figure of the Onmyoji in front of him and couldn't help but make such a comment.

"If it was the uncle, he would have discovered us by now."

"Ah."

Ibaraki Douji nodded.

"If it was Lord Abe, he would have discovered us."

"Eh?"

Shuten-doji turned around and looked at his good friend.
